The Matrix Resurrections (2021)

As someone old enough to know and appreciate the first 3 movies, and who like many others of my generation were shattered at how #3 ended. The moment I heard about the 4th I’ve been looking forward to seeing what they were gonna do. And what did that wait and anticipation get me?
THIS disappointing mess.
Entertainment wise it was ‘ok’ at best, story wise it was ‘meh’. Yeah, it was nostalgic to see Keanu and Carrie-Anne back in action, but come on. Was it a movie that needed to me be made? NO IT WAS NOT!
The only things that kept me watching were Jessica Henwick and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, because they are both AMAZING. The rest of the cast were a bunch of ‘Netflix Rejects’. (Yeah, “technically” Henwick is a ‘Netflix Rejects’ too, but that girl is a total bad ass.)
They should have just left well enough alone instead of disgracing that incredible legacy with this pointless nonsense.

On the other hand, the younger ones who don’t know the awesomeness of the first 3 movies, might enjoy this.
